Scotch Eggs

So. Scotch eggs. Hard boiled eggs wrapped in sausage. Mmmmm. Seriously? I read about them a couple places this week, my favorites being F.E.D. and Johnny Roadtrip. I really wanted to do a Pork x 3 egg with Canadian bacon, thick country bacon and sausage. Sadly, my Canadian bacon was too thick and wouldn't wrap around the egg well enough. I will defintately be re-trying this recipe with the Candian bacon.

These were really super easy. I wanted to add an extra Paleo-esque aspect by rolling them in the ground almonds and frying them in the bacon grease before throwing them in the oven. I am totally a breakfast person and I cannot imagine a more perfect breakfast unless I figured out how to add butter to this.
